EIC (economyincrisis.org) published every idea on Global Economic Issues for the last five years. Project-syndicate.org also produces similar ideas from mostly Economists. It is setup by Mr. Bill Gates and Groups, and he does produce issues there too. To sum it up such massive information in a nut-shell:

We cannot fix this in the NORMAL Way…that is why this appeal…1. TPP: It is basically by Pharmaceutical and Hollywood with other low level groups…so it will stay forever.2. Wall Street: Look at stock market that gets it money from Imports that supports a lot of rich people. It is staying there forever.2. International Bank: (From PetroDollars) Due to our currency for now that will stay as it supports the Wall Street almost forever.3. Trade: No matter what you call them, it is what supports Wall Street and International Bank and hence stays there forever.4. Citizen: Those who have money are involved in top three and hence it is what it is and causing a mess of Business Processes towards Chaos. In other words: "Civilization begins with order, grows with liberty and dies with chaos.” – Will Durant

The only way to solve our present Global Economic Issue is Industrial Ecosystems that was advised to China in 1983, that I can support. We are trying to do this elsewhere but no one is listening the process, simply because they have the so called solutions for the “forever” issues.

the setback is the epidemic?...right.....blind to the facts .If the 1% wanted to stop poverty on earth ,all they had to do is redistribute wealth ,equally with all.But with the excuse that people are not ready to manage their lives,you will endlesly earn,on the account of the poor.stealing resources,"buying" ,investing in water reserves,or minerals,is the way to go people!!mine the earth till you get rid of all the dirt...then ,start living your lives on a planet that is no more a planet .....what are we talking about?hope for 15 years down the line ,when people around the world will be already dead from hunfer?already dead from war ts that the US and other big powers cause in order to steal some more resources ,and secure them.....or just to sell some more weapons,to fight unemployment back home.....spare us the philosip[hical conquest...you are rich,you want to keep what you got and you dont give a shit about the poor.Lets play now charity....Read more

All we have done is shift the poor from one country to another. Innovation and measurement of the opportunities that lift greater numbers of lives up will lead to prosperity. Democratizing the tax code, charitable giving, etc. so there is greater economic participation with the intent to correct, adjust the laws in support of enterprise and each nation's citizenry. All inclusive information data needs to be massaged to answer the critical questions no one appears to be willing to ask.....well I am willing. Read more

Certainly some remarkable progress has been made in the last fifteen years, especially in relation to the world's poor across some indicators. The next fifteen years are critical and success will rely heavily on the crafting of new MDG goals and political will both in the north and south as Gates has suggested. Read more

good article overall..vission is clear to help poor worldwide..i think the axis of all evil usa-israil & their role in conspiracy in world politics should be check by un to calm world..& will help people to do their work normally...people will live peacefully..economy will bounce back Read more

These are beautiful sentiments, only Murphy's law tends to outrank such beautiful sentiments. For example, see here on the problems with Mr. Gates push for an end to Polio:

It is going to take a lot more than the teamwork smarts of individuals to take on Murphy. Its going to take a singular global Humanity, with mutual concern and responsibility matching the economic and cultural interdependence rapidly evolving from globalization.

Try completely getting rid of the dandelions on your front lawn without the concern of everyone to protect their neighbors front lawn with equal ferocity. Read more

Gates is right that we can make a better world. He is also right that innovation is a major motor of this. He does not mention the great issue of inequality. Reducing that will be the other great motor. Read more

Even if we share Mr. Gates's optimism based on the present, the future does not look so optimistic.The global crisis, the disappearing middle class, growing unemployment is creating a new generation of "poor" people, and youth without future prospects.The main problem is humanity's stubborn persistence of pushing on with a socio-economic system that is unsustainable.Very soon even today's generous donors will stop giving as they will have nothing to give from.Gazing optimistically beyond the horizon without knowing where we stand, and who we are only yields disappointment.Instead we should be looking down the ground, ahead of our feet and try to build a new, natural and thus sustainable global human system, adapted to today's global, interconnected world, one in which mutual responsibility, truly global cooperation and consideration will make today's charity projects obsolete.

when framed this way....we can frame it this way too.....the market of making drugs..needs a market of takers of drugs....what would a market of making drugs do...without a market of takers of drugs......who is the greater of benefitors...is it about life...or is it about trade... Read more

I, too, am an optimist that things are moving in the right direction. Thanks to information dissemination, people in the developed world have an access to information about where their aid monies go. Consequently, the recipients are being required to be more accountable, which may eventually help reducing corruption in the recipient countries and mediator organizations. I also believe that advancements in technologies such use of smart phones in delivering health care will expedite reaching these MDGs sooner than expected as well as measuring the process and outcomes more accurately than ever before. The important challenge is now identify the communities' assets to remedy these needs for sustainable progress and prioritizing the delivery for optimum impact. On the process end, I am still cautiously watching the great fraction in social enterprise whether this many small organizations has any utility, or they are redundant and/or impede progress.
